"Very good knife, easy one handed use only let down is the color coating on it, its scratching and chipping off easily. Magna cut blades very nice."

With advanced FREE® technology, ARC delivers smooth, one-handed access to every tool even the pliers—no fingernails required. Magnetic architecture allows each feature to open effortlessly, lock confidently, and snap shut with a satisfying click.
ARC is the first multi-tool to feature MagnaCut® steel—delivering outstanding edge retention, blade strength, and corrosion resistance in one advanced material. Every detail—from the blade to the finishes—is selected for maximum durability and long-term performance.
ARC was built with the tool set our fans asked for—focused on versatility, performance, and real-world utility. It includes both large and small bit drivers for on-the-go adjustments, a diamond-coated file for smoothing and precision work, and large scissors that are outside accessible.
ARC is built to last—and made to stand out. Whether it’s the ultra-durable Cerakote® handles of ARC Talos or the DLC-coated stainless steel of the original ARC, every finish is selected for long-lasting performance, corrosion resistance, and timeless style. No matter which you choose, ARC is ready for a lifetime of use.

"Very good knife, easy one handed use only let down is the color coating on it, its scratching and chipping off easily. Magna cut blades very nice."
"Love it, only thing is I have had to twice retighten the screws that hold the back end of the handles together as there was a small buffer piece of plastic that falls out as it opens up. Mine was customised and the side it was customised comes apart, maybe they need to use some low strength loctite to stop it from happening after it’s been detailed. Or supply it with the bits/driver to maintain tightness."
"This Tool exceeded my expectations. I was hesitant because of the price tag, but now I have it, it is well worth it. Fantastically made, functional, nothing to fault at all."
"This feels like a classic case of selling a premium product while quietly stripping out standard accessories and hoping customers won’t notice. The Leatherman ARC is marketed elsewhere as a complete flagship tool, typically including a sheath and accessories. What I received was just the bare tool in a box - nothing else. At this price point, that’s not just poor value, it feels misleading. It gives the impression that customers are expected to accept less while paying full premium pricing. The tool itself is good, but the way it’s sold here undermines trust completely."
"The arc is a great tool and very easy to use. Unfortunately some rust issues appeared within weeks of ownership despite dry conditions."
"Everything on the ARC Leatherman looks and feels good, the blade is very sharp, time will tell how it holds its edge. I hope it’s as good as the other Leathermans I have."
"My first Leatherman and a clear upgrade from my Gerber, what a difference. Impressed by the quality and functionality of the ARC and have used it many times in the wilderness already."
"You get what you pay for! Very handy multi tool for diy around home or holiday travel."
"Brilliant. Straight into action at work. Tool for life."
"amazing tool but there is a lot of play in the handles which cannot be fixed. It makes an incredible tool feel like a cheap Chinese copy"
